Just in case you are not my friend or follower on Facebook, you may have missed the new cover Perry Elisabeth Designs made for my new book, The Tower Builder. And in case you missed the paltry 30,000 times I
may have mentioned it, this is specifically in honor of a NY city book signing November 13th, 6:30-9 in midtown Manhattan. Anyone who wishes to go may go, but you must RSVP. I receive the fancy schmancy invites probably by Friday and will email them to anyone who wishes to go. You may respond to this blog with your email, or send me a private message on Facebook and I will be sure you get one. They will cap the number of attendees so if you are planning to go, you must RSVP and sooner rather than later. My book with the new cover goes live on Amazon in a few days, and if you want your book signed, you need to pre-order and bring your own. I will have very limited inventory there.
So, I sent the host firm the last bit of information they needed for the book signing event by the end of the morning yesterday after two weeks of non-stop hustling and activity. Now, the calm before the storm. I actually had time to sit down and work on my sequel to The Bark of the Covenant. I became immersed in a chapter that flowed out of me. 4,000 words later, I came up for air.
I am so blessed. I spend most days doing what I love. So far, I am not rich, but the fat lady ain't done singing yet....One of the groups I belong to on Facebook asked a question about our purpose in writing. That is a great question. I think we should ask that of all things we do. What is our purpose? I have many reasons...but really only one purpose. My purpose is, and I hope always will be, to glorify God and draw others to Him.
However, all you who are thinking about buying my book, I would not be
at all upset if your sales brought my Amazon ranking to #1. I can be God-driven just the same, right?

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the
Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
And we know that for those who love God all things work together
for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.
But rise and stand upon your feet, for I have appeared to you for
this purpose, to appoint you as a servant and witness to the things in
which you have seen me and to those in which I will appear to you,
The heart of man plans his way, but the
Lord establishes his steps.
You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you
should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that
whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.
Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in
the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined
according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the
counsel of his will,
